It was nightfall.
Yunyue Gate, Chu Nation.
On a hill on the outskirts of the sect, houses were scattered here and there.
This was the residence of the outer disciples of the Yunyue Gate.
Among them, a dim light could be seen in one of the simple and crude houses.
"I have never seen the material of this crystal before …"
A 14 or 15-year-old boy in a green shirt was holding a strange crystal in his hand. He couldn't help but let out a low sigh.
The youth's face was slightly immature, but it was clean and pleasant to look at. His eyes were bright and clear.
At this moment, he was staring at the crystal in his hand excitedly.
The crystal was translucent and had a strange shape. It was about the size of a baby's palm, and its surface was covered with a layer of dark silver crystal.
At first glance, it looked like an exquisite crystal heart.
Under the light.
In the depths of the mysterious crystal, gold and silver intertwined, colorful, and bloody light rippled … It was as if it was showing all the colors in the world!
"It's amazing. No wonder it came with the Meteoric Iron …"
Chen Yu couldn't suppress his excitement.
The boy was Chen Yu. He was less than 15 years old and was the lowest outer disciple of the Yunyue Gate.
An hour ago.
A meteor landed on the edge of the Yunyue Gate. Dust flew everywhere and the earth was shaking.
For a moment, the Sect was shocked.
Because in the deep pit where the meteor landed, there was the Meteoric Iron, which was rarely seen on the continent!
The Meteoric Iron was an extremely precious material for refining weapons. Many legendary divine weapons and treasures used the Meteoric Iron.
If an ordinary weapon could be refined with a piece of the Meteoric Iron, it could be turned into a Precious Weapon.
Chen Yu was really lucky!
When it happened, he happened to be near the area where the Meteoric Iron landed.
Even though he was a mile away, he was hit by the dust when the meteor landed, and his arm was slightly injured.
After the incident.
The high-level Enforcers of the Sect arrived and sealed off the area immediately.
As a result, some of the disciples who were close to the scene "handed over" the meteorite fragments they picked up to the Sect.
Chen Yu was further away, so he picked up two thumb-sized pieces of meteoric iron and missed them.
Not only that.
Chen Yu also picked up a strange crystal that was emitting residual heat and stuck it to the meteorite.
In other words, the crystal in his hand!
"When meteoric iron falls, there will be cracks, but this crystal is actually unscathed?"
Chen Yu's eyes flickered.
His intuition told him that the value of this strange crystal stone was beyond imagination. It might even change his fate of being at the bottom of the Sect …
However, at the thought of his situation in the Sect, the young man's expression darkened slightly.
It had been almost three years since Chen Yu entered the Yunyue Gate.
When he first joined the sect, he was only 12 years old. Under the nurturing of his family, he had stepped into the "Body Tempering Stage."
The Body Tempering Stage, as the name suggested, was to temper the body, strengthen the physique, and lay the foundation for real martial arts cultivation.
The entry requirement of the Yunyue Gate was not high. One had to be younger than 15 years old and step into the Body Tempering Stage.
After three years of hard work, Chen Yu broke through from the early stage of the Body Tempering Stage to the late stage.
According to his father, this kind of aptitude was considered good in the family or in the mortal world.
However.
After entering the world of the Sect, Chen Yu then understood his mediocrity and inferiority.
"There are still two more months. If I can't advance to the higher 'Meridian Opening Stage', I will be expelled from the Sect!"
Chen Yu's eyes darkened slightly.
In the Yunyue Gate, the new outer disciples all had a "probation period."
The outer disciples had a rule: If they were still in the Body Tempering Stage after three years or when they were 16 years old and unable to break through, they would be expelled from the Sect!
After all, the Body Tempering Stage was only the foundation of the initial stage of martial arts. It was not much stronger than ordinary people.
Only by advancing to the Meridian Opening Stage could one be considered to have stepped into the door.
Chen Yu was very unlucky. There were still two more months before the assessment deadline.
Just when Chen Yu was in a trance.
Bang bang!
There was a knock on the door outside. He could vaguely see some figures.
"Outer disciple 'Chen Yu', open the door quickly! Accept the inspection of the law enforcement team! "
A cold man's voice was heard.
Chen Yu's head jumped. It turned out to be the law enforcer of the sect.
Could it be that he had been "picking up scraps" in the outer area of the Meteorite Metal and was discovered?
It shouldn't be!
Chen Yu could be sure that when he picked up the Meteorite Metal and the mysterious crystal, there was no one else present.
He hurriedly put the "strange crystal stone" into his clothes and lovingly placed it there.
Creak!
The door opened and a young man in a black robe appeared outside. Behind him was a young man in a green shirt.
The young man in the black robe was wearing a law enforcement robe. From his aura, it was obvious that he was a law enforcer with a special status. With just a glance from the law enforcer, Chen Yu felt as if he was being cut by a sharp blade. His skin turned cold.
The other young man in a green shirt was 15 or 16 years old. He was considered handsome, but there was a hint of malice in his charm, which slightly ruined his beauty.
This person's attire was basically the same as Chen Yu's. They were both wearing the uniform of an outer disciple.
"Wang Lingyun, it's you …"
Chen Yu knew this young man in a green shirt. His expression changed.
Wang Lingyun was his old enemy in the Sect!
Both of them were from Xiangyang City in the Chu Nation and their families were enemies.
At this moment, there was a hint of schadenfreude in Wang Lingyun's eyes.
"Wang Lingyun, is this the Chen Yu that you reported? Are you sure that he walked out of the crater and brought the Meteorite Metal with him? "
The law enforcer in a black robe said indifferently.
He turned his gaze to the young man in a green shirt, "Wang Lingyun".
Bullsh * t!
Chen Yu couldn't help but curse. Wang Lingyun actually reported him to the Sect.
However, he clearly remembered that Wang Lingyun wasn't around when he "picked up the loot".
He bumped into Wang Lingyun after he walked out of the cordoned area.
"Lord Enforcer!"
Wang Lingyun said respectfully, "I saw with my own eyes that this kid walked out of the crater area with an unusual expression. I'm afraid that he brought the Meteorite Metal with him. "
After saying that, he sneered in his heart.
Indeed!
He bumped into Chen Yu before, but he wasn't completely sure that Chen Yu had obtained the Meteorite Metal.
He only suspected it.
However, even if it was just a suspicion, he couldn't give Chen Yu the chance to rise up!
How valuable was the meteoric iron from outer space?
If Chen Yu secretly obtained one or two pieces and exchanged them for precious materials and elixirs, he might be able to advance to the Meridian Illuminating Stage.
Once he advanced to the Meridian Illuminating Stage, Chen Yu would be able to establish a foothold in the Yunyue Gate. This was something that Wang Lingyun definitely didn't want to see!
"As long as Chen Yu is expelled from the Sect, the gap between him and me will become bigger and bigger. We, the Wang Family, will suppress the Chen Family and dominate Xiangyang City! Moreover, Mu Xueqing will also lose interest in him and fall in love with me … "
Wang Lingyun secretly planned and couldn't help but feel a little proud.
"Chen Yu."
The law enforcer said, "Did you bring the Meteorite Metal with you? If it's true, hand it over and you can avoid punishment. "
The law enforcer and Wang Lingyun stared at Chen Yu.
"It's true."
Chen Yu's mind spun rapidly, and he quickly came up with an idea.
"He admitted it?"
Astonishment flashed across the black-robed Enforcer's face.
"You really have it …"
Wang Lingyun couldn't help but feel jealous.
Previously, he had only suspected that Chen Yu had obtained the meteorite fragment. He never thought that Chen Yu would actually obtain it.
If he put himself in Chen Yu's shoes, he wouldn't take the initiative to hand it over either.
After all, if he handed it over, he would at most get some contribution points from the Sect. How could it be compared to the true value of the Meteorite Metal?
"Luckily, I had foresight and didn't give him any chance."
Wang Lingyun heaved a sigh of relief.
Soon, Chen Yu handed the two Meteorite Metal pieces to the law enforcer.
"Well, although you brought the Meteorite Metal pieces with you, you can avoid punishment if you cooperate and hand them over."
The law enforcer nodded.
Then, the two of them searched Chen Yu's house for a long time but didn't find any other Meteorite Metal pieces.
"Lord, you haven't searched this kid yet."
Wang Lingyun's eyes narrowed, revealing a trace of sharpness. She did not intend to let go of any possibility.
Chen Yu's heart thumped, and he immediately cursed all eighteen generations of Wang Lingyun's ancestors.
Although Chen Yu had handed over the Meteorite Fragment, he kept the more valuable and mysterious "Wonder Crystal Stone" close to his body instead of handing it over.
Luckily, Chen Yu had expected this.
He had already thought of what to say. He would insist that the crystal stone was his "family treasure".
After all, the Sect only searched for the Meteorite Metal. No one knew about the existence of the crystal stone.
"I've handed over the Meteorite Metal. You can search me now, Lord."
Chen Yu waved his hand and looked relaxed.
The law enforcer nodded slightly and believed him.
However, he didn't want to lower himself to search an outer disciple, so he asked Wang Lingyun to do it for him.
"Don't worry, Lord!"
Wang Lingyun's face was filled with eagerness and enthusiasm.
He wouldn't give Chen Yu any chance!
Whoosh!
In a flash, Wang Lingyun had already arrived next to Chen Yu and started to search him.
"So fast!"
Chen Yu felt an invisible gust of wind enveloping him. His body swayed slightly and he almost lost his balance.
There was an invisible "aura" around Wang Lingyun's palm, which made his Qi and blood heavy and made it difficult for him to breathe.
The "aura" was hard to see with the naked eye, but it was so powerful that it could easily smash bricks and stones.
"Neixi?"
Chen Yu's face darkened. "Wang Lingyun has indeed reached the Pulse Illuminating Stage, and he didn't just reach it …"
The so-called Pulse Illuminating Stage was to open up all the meridians in the body and cultivate the invisible power of neixi.
If one cultivated neixi to the Transcendent Stage, one would be able to hurt people from a distance, shatter metal, and kill enemies with a flick of the finger. One would have a powerful force that was above the mortal world.
Chen Yu was in the Body Forging Stage, which cultivated physique and strengthened the body. It focused on improving the overall quality of the body, so he couldn't have the power of neixi yet.
"Humph … With me here, you won't stand a chance!"
Wang Lingyun began to search.
He didn't let go of any details, including Chen Yu's ears, mouth, hair, and armpits.
